In term one we learned about rates, ratios, and proportional reasoning. After that unit we did a video about rate, ratio, and reasoning. The theme of that movie was Sesame Street. I did my video with Nils and Errol on A’s anatomy. This unit was different because i had never learned about that topic before. The last unit in this term was about the Pythagorean Theory and about shapes and how there all alike. From this term I think I did well but I don’t think I succeeded on my blogging assignments. Next term I will work on doing my blog assignments on time. I will also work on studying hard for unit tests. Above all I think I did well this term and instead of getting 71 I will try to get in the 80’s or in the 90’s at the most.

Term 2 Reflection
In term two, I think I could have done better with studying for bigger tests because I didn’t do very well in term tests. Though I did bad in tests, I think I did a fairly good job with small quizzes. My favorite unit was surface area although I didn’t do very well on that unit test. In this term I don’t think I did my best in blogging and homework assignments. I will try to be more responsible on that next term. If I could give myself a mark it would probably be 75 because I could have put more effort into my work
